How well does this vacuum work on hard floors?

I use it all the time on my hardwood floors. Just set it for "low carpet" and it is great.

Roomba works very well on wood and laminate floors! It works in a consistent pattern to pick up dirt and debris without leaving marks behind. I have multiple pets and it always picks up hair and dirt well. The bin fills quickly, so one must check often to assure maximum sweeping action. It also must have a pretty obstacle free floor to work most efficiently. If you move stuff around a lot or have lots of clutter, that impedes Roomba's ability to work by memory and it may appear to bump around randomly in this situation. Love Roomba and even purchased a Scuba after my Roomba purchase.

I Have used it on tile, it isn't the best. Is a fine vacuum, but to be honest, I broke down and bought a Dyson that is better on both hard floors and carpet. I still have this vacuum too though.

I use mine for the same job almost every day. Our cat makes a mess in the laundry room with litter and fur. The vacuum does a great job on both on the hard floor and the throw rugs.

I have used this for almost one month everyday clening hard floor and carpets, I like the way it works, the suction is not very hard, but it is enough for the price I paid, works good on hard floors.

It does really well. You can crank it down to bare floor and if you lean the vacuum forward at all it will suction itself to the floor so hard you can't move. We usually use one setting above bare floor and it'll get dust/hair/lose dirt/etc. It doesn't remove jelly or other sticky food remnants that are stuck to the floor (with the kids under 5, this is an unfortunate reality at our house), but I don't think any vacuum does.

I do not think this vacuums bare floors well. It does an okay job but some things are spit out when doing bare floors. I would also be afraid of scratched hard wood and have not really used it for that. As a regular carpet vacuum, this is a fantastic one and has lasted me over four years and it still going strong.

I just used the vacuum yesterday to vacuum my whole second floor which has hard wood floors and some area rugs. It worked beautifully!! I never have to pick anything up. I would have never bought the machine if it didn't pick up along the edges.

Did you ever get an answer on how the Tempo works on hard wood? I'd love to hear as that's all I have. From the reviews it sounds like a great and reasonably priced vacuum, but it seems to have mixed reviews on the question of bare floors. Thanks very much!

It is the best vacuum ever for hard floors! The suction is superior to every vacuum I have ever owned. I also have a pet that sheds and it removes pet hair very efficiently! The attachments are great! You will not regret buying it!

I have had a very positive experience with this vacuum on different floor types. I have pergo, carpet, hardwood and tile in my home and have found no issues with this vacuum. It is great that it doesn't "spit out" debris when using it on the kitchen tile floor or any of the hard surfaced floors. It has great suction power. I like that i can do all the floors without having to change to the hose part of the vacuum if i don't want to.

I use mine mainly on hard surfaces but worked just fine when I have used on carpet.

Not quite sure what your question is, but it works very well on carpet. Mats and area rugs can get sucked up because it has great suction. It has two settings, one for carpet and one for hard floors.

I only use it on hardwood and tile floors. It's not good as the only vacuum.

I only have hard wood floors in my house and I love this vacuum. It's awesome.

I am very happy with this vac. Does great on carpeted and wood stairs and floors! It gets pretty close to walls when it cleans but you'll need a canister vac to really do a thorough job. But how often do you do that? This is a great vac with very good power. I love it! Hope this helps.

I think it is great on hardwood floors. I don't use the power nozzle much for the floors, though I will when I am rushing from hardwood to carpets for a quick clean up. I prefer the soft brush attachment. I bought this vacuum with my MIL's recommendation. She also lost suction power in her, but here was a filter on the inside of the machine that was completely clogged. Once she took care of that (I can't remember exactly, but I think she just cleaned it, not replaced) it's suction was back to full power.
